i cant install this driver, its says

"windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device.

windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it.

Nvidia geforce go 7300

i extract the "169.21_forceware_winvista_32bit_english_beta" and download the inf, i replace the inf and try the "have-disk method vista"

can you help me plz ?

[Guest Anonymous]

Umm... for some reason when I try to install these 169.21 drivers the setup goes through, but it happens very quickly and it says at the end that the system has not been modified. Why is it doing this? I'm coming from 169.17 drivers if that means anything.

[Guest Izzy]

Replaced inf, ran setup. Got the same "System was not modified." message.

[anothermike69]

This .inf will not work unless you have the international drivers. I'm sure that the current link to download the drivers is temporary. Be patient, an international version will be out soon enough.

:)

[mobilenvidia]

The international driver link is on the nvidia page at the end of the Release highlights

Am having some driver server issues now, so need to be careful how/where drivers are coming from on the servers.

I may trial another server to see how it will handle it.

[anothermike69]

Hm interesting. Best course of action is to wait then? If others are replacing the international driver with the modded .ini then it should work... :)

[mobilenvidia]

No need to wait redirect now points to our spare server :)

Just needed to copy the files there.

[ziyaad]

Ok cool downloading Drivers...Now! Love the new drivers every week! :)

[Guest Andrew]

Re-downloaded and it works GREAT! :) Thank you thank you^_^

Battlefield 2142, Far Cry, and Chronicles of Reddick behave erratically when played

while the NVIDIA Control Panel is open.[303662]

• [sLI], GeForce 8600: Warhammer 40k Mark of Chaos–the ground has flickering

patches when using SLI mode. [332353]

319789]

I will try them out now.

D.

Edit...

Well, same issue as the previous releases after 169.04.... NO software-OC

Will try out some games later, but I am sure they will be the same (overall performance wise) as the previous releases

Just needed to copy the files there.

Thanks much! Also installing these drivers now. I'll update you guys after I've messed around with them for a bit.

[GaryHook]

edit: working now :)

[Guest Guest]

Hello all,

by the way : does the Nvidia Mobile Quadro Cards also work with these mobile modded drivers ?

Thank you !!!

[garyduo]

It works well. You can download tan try it

[Huey]

Sweet!

I tested it in crysis and cod4,

works great for me. :)

[Shugo Wolf]

Just so I'm completely sure, even if these drivers don't support Control Panel over-clocking, can they still be over-clocked with the ATITool application?

If not, I'm staying on what I currently have.

[RangerXML]

If you wanna restore NV Control Panel OC, uninstall nTune and then reinstall it. It will reappear as an option. Had a similar issue pop up with the last 2 (169.13 and 169.17).

[Shugo Wolf]

Well, technically, all these newer drivers have the options, it just won't save the option when you Apply and exit.

As long as it works with ATITool, I'm good.

EDIT: Well, it would appear we have the exact same laptop!
